| Okay,
this is just strange. Long-haired Jody, John is still around,
Peter has hair, Kevin is still around, and Duncan is the keyboardist.
Everybody got that? Okay, now forget it because you're about
to see a whole ton of other people who I can't hope to being
to identify! |
Such as this guy. He's a drummer, obviously. And Peter's been the only drummer for the Newsboys except for Duncan as far as I know. So..... is this Peter? I honestly don't know. It's hard to regress a guy 17 years and guess at what he might look like. |
 |
 |
| More confusion. Peter? Again, no idea. I'm bad enough with faces I'm familiar with. I can't cope with faces from over a decade ago! | More
random Newsboys. I'm just going to be quiet now and let you enjoy
the pictures since I have nothing useful to contribute at this
point. |

I'm fairly sure that's John in the foreground there. Instead of making incorrect guesses about Newsboys, though, I'm just going to tell you what Bill Furler (Peter's dad) is saying in the background during this photo montage. "Hey, Dad!" Peter yelled. "There's this guy on the line from North Queensland. He wants to know if he can come down and stay for a few days." "What's his name?" I asked, trying to give myself a little space to think. |
"James!" Peter said. "James who?" "Johnny James!" Another young lad from South Australia, George Perdikis by name, had come up to see us for a couple of weeks about three years ago and he's still here! And if I'm not mistaken, that's Johnny James
up there. |
 |
 |
| John? Who knows... | This
is definitely Peter. Very scary. |
 |
 |
|
Peter Furler, some guy, John James, another guy. And now more storytelling from Bill Furler: |
"What's
all that racket coming from the house?" I exclaimed as Rosalie
and I grabbed the groceries from the back of the car. "And
why are our neighbors conversing with each other all the way
down the street?" I questioned. |
 |
 |
|
"Hey! Shut that thing down!" I screamed. "What's going on here?" I continued. Meet John James and Peter Furler of yesteryear. |
"Having just a jam," Pete piped up. "We've only just moved into this neighborhood
of Mooloolaba and they're out there talking about chasing us
out of the town and you're having a what?!" |
 |
 |
| "Jam, Dad," Pete repeated himself again. | Again, John and
Peter in the middle there. (John's the one in the hat.) If anyone
can tell me who is who in the rest of these pictures, I'd be
so grateful! |
 |
 |
| Awwww. Baby Newsboys. | Ouch. That's a painfully
purple shirt there, Peter. |
 |
 |
| Peter and Kevin Mills, I'm reasonably certain. | "How come
the fridge has still got food in it?" I asked Rosalie sometime
later as I was digging around looking for a little snack. |
 |
 |
|
"They're all fasting," she explained. "Yes," she said,"they won't be eating for a few days. They just want to seek the Lord and find His will for the group." This is Eanah again. Now, I'm all in favor
of fasting, of course, but would it be possible to fast with
some CLOTHES ON, JOHN?! |
"Well, that should put us in front at least for a while," I commended, chomping on a chicken leg. |
 |
 |
| I don't know... The Newsboys and other random people. I have no explanations to offer! I'm sorry! | HERE we go! A picture
with a caption. *Attempts to sound like she knows what she's
talking about.* And this, ladies and gentlemen, is a shot of
the Newsboys performing at Kingdom Bound in the year 1990. |
 |
 |
| "America!
America!" they were all calling out as they came in running
together. "They want us to go and cut a record in New York!" |
They're armed, but most likely not too dangerous. |
